“The west front is a
free adaptation of the late Gothic type of King's Chapel
Cambridge, with turrets and battlemented parapets. The detail —
with the huge west and east windows with their flowing tracery, the
arches of the arcade sprouting out of the main piers without any
interposed capitals, the abundance of colourful Italian marble
(Ruskin's influence), and the plentiful sculptural decoration — is
all eminently typical of Sedding.” — Cherry and Pevsner, 559.
